     When I met him, I had a lot of anger inside of me. I've lived my whole life in Spainish Harlen, but in my
neighborhood, there are shoot-ups all the time. I know kids who have been shot or beaten up. I have friends
who ended up in prison. I could have ended up that way too, but Mr. Clark wouldn't let that happen.
     Mr. Clark worked long hours, making sure I did my work. My grades rose. In fact, the scores of our
whole class rose. One day, he took our class to see The Phantom of the Opera, and it was the first time some
kids had ever been out of Harlem. Before the show, he treated us to dinner at a restaurant and taught us not to
talk with our mouths full. We did not want to let him down.
     Mr. Clark was selected as Disney's 2000 Teacher of the Year. He said he would draw three names out of
a hat; those students would go with him to Los Angeles to get the award. But when the time came to draw
names, Mr. Clark said, "You are all going."
     On graduation day, there were a lot of tears. We didn't want his class to end. In 2001, he moved to Atlanta,
but he always kept in touch. He started giving lectures about education, and wrote a best-selling book based
on his classroom rules, the Essential 55.
     In 2003, Mr. Clark took some of us on a trip to South Africa to deliver school supplies and visit orphanages
(孤兒院). It was the most amazing experience of my life. It's now my dream to one day start a group of
women's clubs, helping people from all backgrounds.

C. Fifty-five
D. All
4. In the passage, the writer intends to tell us that _____.

     One year ago today, seven patients shared their stories of illness and recovery on the New York Time Well
(a blog), according to a report published in April,2009.
     They were the first Patient Voices, a regular series that offers a first person (第一人稱的) description of
the challenges patients face as they deal with different kinds of health problems. Since the first Patient Voices
appeared, New York Times producer Karen Barrow has continued to give a voice to a lot of patient stories.
     We heard from Jacqueline Castine of Bloomfield Hills, Mich,who had bipolar disorder (躁郁癥), and whose
son also suffered from mental (精神的) illness."I could not save him," she said."I could not fix (懲罰 ) him.
He leaves a beautiful daughter and a very sad mother."
     And there is runner Alyssa Johnson,43,who was training for the Boston Marathon in 2003 when she began
showing the first signs of Parkinson's disease." Sometimes when I'm running I'll come to a long downhill, and
my legs work the way they used to work and my arm swings (擺動) the way it used to. It's like running before Parkinson's, and that's the best feeling.
     And then there's the voice of Robin Grinsted, 50, of Swansea, S. C.,who has H. I. V. She is refused by her
church and feels lonely."They're not accepting," she said." But I know there will be people putting their arms
around me some day."
